Bell is now up to 773 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns for the year. His opposition had no answer for his shifty and explosive brand of football. Bell's ability to jab step and create hesitation from defenders sets him apart from other running backs in the Bluegrass. Bell is also a threat out of the backfield and has 208 additional yards and touchdowns to his credit as well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2128173"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adf958295440"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2128173' first='Ira' last='Robinson Jr']. caught 7 passes for 127 yards and 2 touchdowns during East Jessamine's 48-35 win over Montgomery County last week. Robinson can be used in several ways offensively, including in motion and on jet sweeps and bubbles, and he's proven to be an above-average route-runner with a knack for slipping behind the defense. Robinson's agility and quick strides/footwork help him maneuver his way around defenders and into open grass. With two full seasons left to play at the high school level, Robinson will be a name to keep an eye on moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1954625"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adf95829548c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1954625' first='Liam' last='Dailey']'s 83-yard pick-six against Bryan Station speaks for itself, but Dailey was all over the field for Madison Central on Friday night with 13 total (6 solo) tackles. Dailey does a great job of reacting to what the backfield is giving him to put himself in a pursuit angle to tackle the ball carrier. Players like this bring a lot of discipline, but also a knack for finding the football because of their high-effort style of play. He does a good job of plugging holes in the middle and stopping the run. When he reads the backfield, Dailey plays the run first before bouncing into pass coverage. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2464255"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adf9582954d5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2464255' first='Azarious' last='Rawlings'] is a speedy sophomore tailback who played a pivotal role in Paul Laurence Dunbar's district championship upset over Lafayette during Week 10. Rawlings was the bell cow for the Bulldogs, carrying the ball 27 times for 92 yards and 2 touchdowns. He added a pair of tackles on defense. Rawlings is very agile, which helps him keep his feet chopping to stay upright in tight spaces and burst past defenders in open space. Rawlings only had 17 rushing attempts and 71 yards to his credit on the season before this breakout performance. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1089872"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adf958295519"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1089872' first='Kane' last='Bell-Pointer'] (now 5'9" and 155 pounds) was Frederick Douglass' leading receiver against George Rogers Clark on Friday night, catching 3 passes for 97 yards and a touchdown. Bell-Pointer wowed with his speed against the Cardinals, taking a pitch-and-catch on a simple out-route 75 yards to the house with his speed alone. He's gained a reputation as one of the shiftier receivers in space around Central Kentucky, though he didn't get a lot of opportunities to prove it on Friday night. However, his speed and agility were on full display. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
